Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Man, the more I see this, the more I know that Floyd is genuinely scared of McGregor in real life.
Imagine if Victor Ortiz, or Berto, or Maidana did this, you think Floyd would have been all giggles and smiles and pretend like nothing happened.
Seriously, this was unacceptable, Floyd should have shoved him away.
And you think Conor would dare do that to Nate Diaz, I doubt it.

As for the fight, if McGregor survives 12 rounds, he comes out a winner no matter the decision because it's nearly impossible that Mayweather would survive a 5 round MMA fight with McGregor.
That's the way I'm seeing this, what about you people?

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Yeah, Floyd need to knock him out to "win."

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Floyd will jab him to death and dance around for 12 rounds and get the decision like he always does. Anyone expecting to see anything entertaining are going to be disappointed.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Winning 12 rounds > the ko
Takes a lot more skill to actually outbox an opponent, not sure why you praise brawlers and sluggers, web.

Those two are friends
Mayweather wouldn't survive 1 round with Mac, unless he got him to fight standing up but any MMA fighter worth a fuck will take a boxer to the ground from the bell.
If this was a real fight, Mayweather would kill him, probably really early in the 1st. Think Mike Tyson early days.

For the rest I don't mind assuming it was an act.
Yes Floyd fears Conor outside the ring, it shows and this proved it to me.
Should have slapped his hand away and stood up, do something rather than sit there embarrassed and pretend like you're on the phone (like you had something more important to do than this).

:lol So Conor is some kind of pressure fighter like GGG and Maidana, all of the sudden? Definitely not. His style from what I saw is fighting off the back foot.
So the answer is no, winning 12 rounds with a 0-0 MMA fighter is not greater than a KO.
Floyd won't survive 5 rounds in the UFC against Conor.
He needs this KO/TKO and should not hold back.

Which would be the only way Conor could land a big punch. If Floyd gets reckless. And that's the only way this would be entertaining.

He won't be, but he needs to break him down round by round and go for the finish midway through the fight.
But but but, I doubt Mayweather has the ability to do that anymore. I hope that I'm wrong.
He even said I can't do this anymore so I find a smarter way to fight because breaking people down and finishing requires a lot.

I do think there is some pressure for him to win by TKO so he might get away from his normal routine. But if took one good hit, he'd probably revert back.

That makes no sense, Tbh. Outboxing someone for 12 rounds is true dominance, a bum can knock someone out. Connor might knock Mayweather out, it's within the realm of possibility, doesn't mean he's nearly as good of a boxer. If Connor outboxes Mayweather for even 4 rounds I'd be flabbergasted.
Not sure why you're fixated on kos and think fights like canelo vs ggg are going to be great fights. There's nothing impressive about either fighters except their power, both slow as shit and bad defense.
Not saying McGregor vs money will be better, for the record.

What are you on about?
Boxing a guy who never boxed before for 12 rounds is greater than finishing him? The hell is wrong with you?
With your logic at least say I hope Floyd finishes him off in round 11-12, but saying that a decision win is better than a KO/TKO against a non-boxer is ludacris.
Even Floyd said I don't have the ability to finish guys off like before, it takes a lot from me, so I decided to fight smarter.
He needs to take Conor into deep water and drown him, or else be prepared for a MMA win.
As of today my prediction: same as Xevious, UZER, and SpursforSix, W12 for Mayweather

Boxing isn't about getting knockouts, if Floyd ends up landing >50% and gets tagged <15% in 12 rounds then that's as dominating as one can possibly be. Some people just don't go down, some people get lucky punches, knockouts are too volatile of a result to gauge.
Floyd probably has it in him to knock out Connor, but why try? It's boxing, it's his game, if he wants he can clown Connor for 12 rounds and make a far bigger statement than pulling a Hatton on him.
At the end of the fight, if Floyd lands under 45% and wins I'll think he did bad. Connor is bigger than than canelo, probably harder to ko and canelo got light up by a lot of hard shots without going down, looked like an amateur. Unrealistic expectations

Again at least by your logic say:
Floyd ends up landing > 50%
Gets tagged <15%
Finishing toying with him in R12 and goes for the kill
That's dominating, or else you never finished the job done. MMA will argue, even Nate Diaz not being a boxer KDed Conor several times.
C'est dommage, c'est dommange.
Hopkins should have never finished off Trinidad in R11-R12.
Hopkins should have not finished off DLH.
Roy Jones shouldn't have finished off Motell Griffin but win a R12 decision to regain his belt.
Floyd shouldn't have finished Gatti or Corrales.
Sorry but that is pure stupidity and no boxer thinks like that. This is not fencing as you imply.
Sidenote: We both know and we all know why you're saying this already because you are preparing for a W12 decision from Floyd due to the fact that him finishing off Conor is slim and very unlikely.

Quite frankly, it is fencing without the swords. You simply have the option of finishing a fight before it's over. If Mayweather went for a ko every time he wouldn't be the fighter he is at his age, he won with boxing for the later half of his career not slugging or brawling.
Dominating in boxing is finishing a fight with pure boxing, just slugging people like Tyson or foreman makes you just a physical specimens in a sport rather than a prodigy in a craft.
Side note: we both know you hate Money, you've criticized him constantly and know he's most likely going to win. You want to start trying to build up a talking point against him before the fight.

So by your logic, in a boxing/MMA fight, when there's a pre-fight conference or face-to-face meeting, a fighter shouldn't say I will KO you in 3 rounds or knock you out cold, etc, etc but rather say "I will take you to a dominating W12 win" because that's a greater win. :lmao literally :lmao
Don't hate Mayweather, and no I'm not trying to start anything, I simply know what MMA people will say so be prepared.

C'mon, web, promotional stuff? Might as well argue that people who threaten knockouts are pussies, gimme Tyson saying he'll eat someone's children. That's not boxing, can't even bring it up.
Youve criticized money a lot, he's touted as the best defensive boxer of his generation, possibly better than even pernell. You're just here talking about how he has to knock someone out like he has to prove himself further against McGregor.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
LOL. MMA fanboy triggered.
Dana White is a hybrid of Don King and Vince McMahon, he's a thieving bastard and is all but out of bankable stars, hence he hitching his train to the biggest combat-sport star ever.
UFC is such a shit "sports" promotion. From the massive steroid ring Dana runs, to the pimping of his fighters to fatten his pockets, to stealing the WWE business model. Fuck that bigoted, roided up fuckboi.
MMA is a fad.:lol
MMA will never surpass boxing. It had a chance and Dana fucked that up. Hence, again, hitching his train to the biggest ticket in combat-sports. :lol
Floyd makes more money in one match than all the UFC fighters combined in a year.:lol
Dana exposing his modern BJ Penn for the money. :lol
Shit show that will be pirated. :lol
No one, except triggered MMA Boi here will pay for this shit show. :lol
Connor's already been knocked out in practice by Paulie Faggot Malanaggi:lol
LOLMMA:lol
Dana is going to book tranny fighters in the Women's division next. Fucking circus, carny that did more to hurt the sport, but fatten his pockets. Motherfuckin Don King and Vince McMahon to a T.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Conor has only ever knocked out people with amatuer at best boxing skills. Floyd, even at this age, is too quick and too skilled for him, and this will be a boring fight and idiots like OP will bitch when Floyd wins in a decision.

I'm not. If Floyd wins a decision, we both know what's coming from the MMA fellas.
If Floyd puts on a performance like you say 50% connect etc, well he did that against other boxers.
He needs to make a statement, a "you don't belong here" type of fight and not a Berto performance. Even if he wins a decision, he needs to at least f**k up Conor's face. Other than that it won't look good.

What's his best % in the last 10-12 years? I think he got almost 50 vs pac but it's usually at around 40. Hitting at over 50, like 55-60 would be embarrassing for anybody who trained for a professional fight.
I say the only statement he needs to make is clown McGregor, show him that he'll never be at a professional level. Some people are hard to knock out, especially for smaller fighters, Diaz was the biggest guy McGregor fought and it wasn't even a ko.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Floyd definately needed better trash talk material verses just saying yeah the entire time. They are probably best buds who will be laughing all the way to the bank. Everyone's on Floyd's side just laughing it up

McGregor has shown he can more than hold his own with his fists; in fact, that's his preferred method of wearing down an opponent. And he packs a helluva a lot more power than 40-year-old fairy dancer.

Floyd is probably the greatest talent in boxing since the turn of the century, best defense since Pernell.

worst case scenario for money is connor strategically just pounce him, lands a few good blows in the process. eventually though mayweather will win by a UD. boxing is a point game nowadays and mayweather is the best when it comes to that.

Once Floyd got to a certain age, he's only done matches where he can run enough to not get KO'd. The running will only do so much against McGregor, who is much more fearless than anyone he has faced. And frankly, he doesn't need to fear a runner in the first place. McGregor is going to beat the shit out of him. Book it.

I've seen McGregor take more punishment in one round of MMA than 40-year-old, decrepit Floyd could give in three matches. Sorry, but you're over-rating any technical advantage Boy Penny Fairyfeather might have. And McGregor is a bruiser. Sorry, but running from the very occasional haymaker that these limpweights could give compared to the beatdown that McGregor is going to give is two different things.

You're going to have to back that up with examples, because every boxer Mayweather has beaten since dlh has admitted his loss except for maidana.

mcgregor has NEVER HAD A BOXING MATCH BEFORE1!! repeat with me, MCGREGOR HAS NEVER HAD A BOXING MATCH BEFORE.
Only in Amerikka can a bullshit ass fight like this be promoted and people actually think it's gonna be competitive. They're not going to tell you how it's really gonna end because they want money from dumb ass fans willing to pay for it. Just like CM punk fighting in UFC. Only a fool didn't know he was gonna get dominated in 1 round.

mcgregor has never had a boxing match. He would lose to every fighter in the top 30. All of them. Take any fighter at 154 that you think is a journeyman(and I'm sure you can't name one if you think this fight will be competitive) and Mcgregor loses to all of them. He wouldn't even beat james Kirkland at this point in his career. Boxing isn't sometthing you just jump into. I've boxed since my teens and I'm 40 now and I've sparred with guys 70-80 lbs bigger than me who thought just because they were big, they were gonna steam roll me over and they got played with and dominated. And when they landed, they couldn't even hurt me cuz they weren't used to wearing boxing gloves. This shit is a joke

only advantage for mcgregor in my humble opinion is the fact that mayweather is gonna come out rusty with a questionable legs. see pacquaio's vs horn.
other than that, tbh, i just cant see mcgregor knocking him out.
i can see this going down like the maidana-mayweather 2. where connor will play the role of aggressor but (in maidana's case, too aggressive :lol) but in the end its no bueno. floyd will outscore him in jabs and technicality .

BFD; you beat some fatties in the ring, dude. No, you did not beat any in-shape giants. Boxing has weight classes for a reason. And if the top 30 was that good, the runner would have found someone who would've beat his ass down already!
Bro, you got thoroughly wrecked in this exchange. I'm gonna have to hang an L on you.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
you just cant bum rush mayweather, its been done more than a dozen times with zero success. I cant believe im doing this but mayweather's hand speed is severely underrated, that and his power. it's jarring.
ive seen it against pacquiao. I think pac was surprised at how powerful mayweather's punches were. that honestly kept him at bay and his game plan went out the window.

first of all, I'm sure you don't watch boxing at all and can't name 5 fighters in 154 without googling. . 2nd, Mayweather has only had 3 fights at 154 for his entire career because as you said, "boxing has weight classes for a reason". 4th, I'm not a Mayweather fan. You got me fucked up if you think I'm that. 5th, if you're so sure Mcgregor is gonna win, you should put some cash on it. At big odds of a ko, you could make some serious coin. I know if I was confident a fighter would win that was a huge underdog, I'd be hitting up the betting sites. Money talks, bullshit runs a marathon.

I definitely will if I'm able to make it to Vegas before the fight, which I very may do. I see +500 to win. If a place has higher odds for the KO exclusively, I'll go with that; because that's how I expect it to come. Floyd's judges ain't going to let him lose a decision.

Vegas sees it the same way. Only +600 for CMg to win by KO. Actually +2500 to +5000 for decisions. Vegas knows hows this sh** gets fixed. :lmao

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
Been into boxing before Cassius Clay became Muhammad Ali. The best of times was that Duran, Leonard, Hearns, Hagler era. Seen a lot of boxers. Floyd Mayweather is the greatest defensive./counter puncher we've seen, he is a master.
Conor could land a devastating punch, not impossible, but....I do doubt it. Obviously, he stands no chance trying to box.
Mayweather wins this in a rather boring display of one guy with no clue what is going on in Conor and another knowing he's way too slick for this rookie.(as a boxer)

10 years, I don’t know, but from the recent Showtime fights, I think it might have been Guerrero. All I saw is Guerrero’s head snap back all night, lol.
Yes overall punches over 50% connect ratio is difficult, but over 50% powerpunch connect I’m positive FMjr has done that, because he doesn’t throw that many.

Yes, agree. Especially someone being 40, it’s not always easy. Don’t be surprise if the KO comes tho, I don’t trust CM’s leg and positioning, he might get caught off guard and get knocked down.
You do realize that prior to the Gatti fight, FMjr had 70% knock out ratio. After that, it went down to 20% that’s if you want to count the sucker punch KO to Ortiz. Just trying to tell you that, I don’t think FMjr was a fencer until his fist got messed up and he had to change his style. I gotta weird feeling FMjr might go for the KO in this fight to cap off his career.

That is false. The correct rumor was Brandon Rios knocked him down during sparring. I personally don’t believe in that, because boxing fights are mental warfare prior to the fight and people lie a lot just to get an edge on their opponent.
Besides, suppose it’s true, who cares. When witnesses went to see Ali spar, they ended up being disgusted/disappointed because Ali would lose during sparring. They failed to understand that he use to practice his weaknesses during sparring sessions. If he had a weak left, he would only fight using his left. So, I don’t know why people make a big deal when someone loses a sparring session.

Floyd used to be a good knockout guy, but his hands aged faster than anything else. Makes sense since F=MA, Floyd has always had very fast hand speed and was a good size below WW. Still, he's not likely going to get the KO because it's not his style and he probably doesn't hit hard enough (mostly due to hands) anymore. I think he'll clown the guy by making him swing wildly like Canelo did and perhaps tire him out like he did with Hatton. I think a TKO is possible because McGregor JUST had a 12r sparring session with Paulie, which means he still hasn't gotten comfortable boxing 12 rounds.

He'd make more as an MMA fighter. But if he wanted to extend his career and build his bank account more, I could see him getting into boxing once he's lost a time or two more in the octagon.

It will die off thereafter because eventually, the boxer will take over.

Let's just hope there isn't a "backroom" agreement to play it up for the fans, turning this bout into a glorified WWE match, with Floyd dancing around and points boxing McGregor with light jabs, while McGregor overthrows power shots.
This shit should have pride on the line for both parties. Full speed from the opening bell. Floyd really needs to demolish McGregor to get a "win" for boxing. If he lets Connor last 12 rounds, media, et al will claim MMA fighters are the kings of combat sports.

Floyd Sr. said they're going to go for the KO, but money has brittle hands and I don't think he can pull it off anymore. He might wear him down and cause a tko though

I doubt CM has the stamina that FM has. He's not used to going that many rounds and a lot of his time in the ring is on the mat. This could be like that.

I'm also thinking a Hatton like tko is going to happen, if he can't ko Floyd before 6 then he'll just succumb to exhaustion by 10-11

Okay, you need to take it easy on pounding the liar button, dude. I don't do online gambling; never have; and I don't do so, knowing that certain places have better odds on their parlays. I gamble on sports when I'm in Nevada or not at all. I have my reasons for that.

Re: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor
I'll be honest, Vegas odds have put the seed of doubt into my mind. But I know that the odds are skewed because of all the money flowing towards Mayweather whom regular gamblers have learned not to bet against.

They are vastly different sports. You obviously need a more complete skillset in MMA than boxing. Jon Jones would murder any boxer in a street fight tbh.

If it's poor it's because it ignores the "technical skill" of boxing. But the two sports are cousins. And to be frank, its much easier for an MMA fighter (especially a puncher like CM) to get into the ring than it is for a boxer to get into the octagon, where real fighting takes place. Maybe the technical advantage would be enough against most MMA fighters for Floyd. But the punching game is actually CM's forte, so that argument only holds so much water for me.

I agree with the bolded part of your statement.
Connor could possibly box against some lower level pros with some success, but to think he has a chance against one of the greatest of all time is asinine. Obviously on the flip side Connor would tear that ass up in the Octagon or a real fight for that matter.

The "greatest defensive fighter of all-time" is now 40. Taking fights against past prime guys like Pac dude is how he has managed to stay undefeated when he has been due for a loss for years. Sorry but eight years past prime; no real fighter should be scared of that.
